Bpl-2

So it looks like people in charge didn't learn a lesson or two from the first edition and now the second edition also has been plagued by incompetency and controversy. This time around franchisees are supposed to pay 25% of players' fees before the tournament starts and guess what, some of the players still haven't received that. Also many foreign players withdrew from the tournament recently.

The BPL governing council for the first edition faced much criticism for the way they handled certain issues, but according to franchisees it has gone only from bad to worse after a new group replaced the officials for the second edition.
There are many issues still needed to be sorted out, including the participation of Pakistani players and the accommodation of players, which put the franchisees in an uncertain situation.

quite a stupid step by the pcb. I am not sure what the hell they are thinking

Yeah we don't crap in the first world; most of us would actually have no idea what that was emanating from Ajmal's backside. Why isn't it roses and rainbows like what happens here? PEWS's retort to Ganeshran on Daemon's picture depicting Ajmal's excreta

Looks like it was a true rumor that PCB wont give NOCs if we don't agree to tour

"A little while ago, we received a phone call from their CEO Subhan Ahmed saying that if we don't send the Bangladesh team on tour to Pakistan, they won't give NOCs to their players to participate in the BPL," the BCB's media committee chairman said.

PCB got tunneled regarding the matter now and it seems they are trying to force this issue. BCB was in tremendous pressure starting from civil citizen and government to back out from the tour and rightly so. No one has the right to put others life at risk. Also our former board president should take the blame for this chaos in the first place as he agreed to tour because of his personal gain that is PCB to give him nomination for ICC vp post.
